Description mal 2000-08-05 17:13:05 UTC

When an icon on desktop is created
doing "right click" , view 
I can see the ~/.gnome-desktop/ICON.desktop content OK.
But when doing "right click" , edit
Emacs is started with no file in it,
emacs is probably started without an argument given.

changed to mc rather than gnome-core

Comment 2 Pavel Roskin 2000-10-04 01:35:20 UTC

The problem only happens when NEEDS_TERM=false in ~/.gnome/editor
Otherwise the name is passed to the editor.

Comment 3 Pavel Roskin 2000-10-04 16:40:01 UTC

The problem was that emacs was run as "emacs %s" and "%s" was supposed to expand to all tagged files, but this behavior has been broken for some 
time.
I've just checked in a fix in CVS. Here it is if you don't want to wait for 4.5.52:
